## Summary
- Updates the Linux bubblewrap sandbox args to mount a minimal `/dev`
using `--dev /dev` instead of only binding `/dev/null`. tools needing
entropy (git, crypto libs, etc.) can fail.
- Changed mount order so `--dev /dev` is added before writable-root
`--bind` mounts, preserving writable `/dev/*` submounts like `/dev/shm`
## Why
Fixes sandboxed command failures when reading `/dev/urandom` (and
similar standard device-node access).
Fixes https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/12056
`SandboxPolicy::ReadOnly` previously implied broad read access and could
not express a narrower read surface.
This change introduces an explicit read-access model so we can support
user-configurable read restrictions in follow-up work, while preserving
current behavior today.
It also ensures unsupported backends fail closed for restricted-read
policies instead of silently granting broader access than intended.
## What
- Added `ReadOnlyAccess` in protocol with:
- `Restricted { include_platform_defaults, readable_roots }`
- `FullAccess`
- Updated `SandboxPolicy` to carry read-access configuration:
- `ReadOnly { access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- `WorkspaceWrite { ..., read_only_access: ReadOnlyAccess }`
- Preserved existing behavior by defaulting current construction paths
to `ReadOnlyAccess::FullAccess`.
- Threaded the new fields through sandbox policy consumers and call
sites across `core`, `tui`, `linux-sandbox`, `windows-sandbox`, and
related tests.
- Updated Seatbelt policy generation to honor restricted read roots by
emitting scoped read rules when full read access is not granted.
- Added fail-closed behavior on Linux and Windows backends when
restricted read access is requested but not yet implemented there
(`UnsupportedOperation`).
- Regenerated app-server protocol schema and TypeScript artifacts,
including `ReadOnlyAccess`.
## Compatibility / rollout
- Runtime behavior remains unchanged by default (`FullAccess`).
- API/schema changes are in place so future config wiring can enable
restricted read access without another policy-shape migration.
## Summary
This PR introduces a gated Bubblewrap (bwrap) Linux sandbox path. The
curent Linux sandbox path relies on in-process restrictions (including
Landlock). Bubblewrap gives us a more uniform filesystem isolation
model, especially explicit writable roots with the option to make some
directories read-only and granular network controls.
This is behind a feature flag so we can validate behavior safely before
making it the default.
- Added temporary rollout flag:
- `features.use_linux_sandbox_bwrap`
- Preserved existing default path when the flag is off.
- In Bubblewrap mode:
- Added internal retry without /proc when /proc mount is not permitted
by the host/container.
## Summary
Vendor Bubblewrap into the repo and add minimal build plumbing in
`codex-linux-sandbox` to compile/link it.
## Why
We want to move Linux sandboxing toward Bubblewrap, but in a safe
two-step rollout:
1) vendoring/build setup (this PR),
2) runtime integration (follow-up PR).
## Included
- Add `codex-rs/vendor/bubblewrap` sources.
- Add build-time FFI path in `codex-rs/linux-sandbox`.
- Update `build.rs` rerun tracking for vendored files.
- Small vendored compile warning fix (`sockaddr_nl` full init).
